For the start of November we've had quite a mixture of weather, temperatures have been a very nice sunny 20º -22º but we have also had a good deal of rain most of which has fallen through the night I'm glad to say! These photos all taken this week show just how rough the sea has been but yet its still warm enough to sun bathe on the beach...providing you stay away from the water. Its far too dangerous when the waves are crashing upto the beach as they have this week.

Market day in Lloret de Mar
Every Tuesday morning in Lloret you will see groups of people heading towards the market to search for the best bargains. Just now as the weather has cooled down considerably the stalls are stocked with winter clothes....along with the usual Spanish dresses, underwear, bags, shoes and lots of fruit and veg. The market starts at about 8.30am, the stall holders begin to pack up and close between 1-2pm.

Three drowned in Lloret this week.
PHOTOS OF THE BEACH TODAY
Today the sea in Lloret has claimed another life making that the third this week. The sea has been very rough for several days now and red flags have been flying warning people of the danger. Its not always possible for visitors to Lloret to realise just how dangerous the sea here can be, sometimes the red flags are up and it may look quite calm...but there maybe very strong undercurrents...flags are there for a reason! There are three flags and they are to be treated as traffic signals - green for go, yellow for caution and red is always STOP. Meaning that no one is allowed in the sea, the lifeguards do a fantastic job on Lloret beaches and what ever they say must go! Flags are always displayed on poles at the top of the beach but if you see red flags in the sand by the waters edge then on one is allowed beyond that point...see the photo below. Please have a great time and take care while on your holidays in Lloret...take notice of the flags and stay safe.
